Chapter 11 - A contradictory person

I want to sleep but I don't have any money, I should probably go and sleep in the forest and tomorrow I'll complete my mission, okay I'll sleep under this tree, it's morning, my back is really hurting, sleeping here was a bad idea, okay I'll go and check the garden , that guard is still there and I can't get in as long as he's there, I have to do something or I can't get in.

Well, it's been two days and I haven't made any progress. I have to hurry up, or I'll die of hunger. For two days I haven't eaten anything. I drink water from the river. I'm going to the garden . What? What? What is it? Is that Fiona? Someone's trying to steal her. I'm going to save her.

Let go of me, man! Let go of me! 

Leave her, you bastard, or I'll kill you. 

Stay out of it, kid. 

you leave me no choice, I'll take out my sword now.

What, are you serious? Okay, okay, okay. I'll go. 

Get out of here, asshole. Are you okay, Fiona?

Yeah. Thank you, Ewan, for saving me. Thank you, really. 

Don't worry. This is for the food you gave me. 

But what were you doing here, Ewan? 

Uh, "I can't tell her the truth." I was just taking a walk, heard you screaming, came to the source of the sound, and then I saw you.

Most importantly, thank you. 

Get away from my daughter, you bastard! 

What's this garden ranger? What's he doing here?

Relax, Dad. This guy saved me. 

That's it, then. I'm sorry I was so quick to judge you. 

"So Fiona is the daughter of the groundskeeper, so I must take advantage of the situation." No need to thank me, sir. Can I have the plant I told you about in exchange for saving your daughter? 

What plant?

Yes, Fiona, I was here for a plant a few days ago, but your father said no.

I thought you were a noble person for saving Fiona, but it turns out you're doing this for your own gain. Thank you for saving my daughter, but I'm sorry I can't fulfill your request. 

"What do I do now? This is my last chance to complete my mission. What do I do? There's no other choice. I'm sorry, Fiona."

Uh, what are you doing, Ewan? 

Don't move an inch, Fiona. 

Why are you holding me so tight with your sword pointed at me, Ewan? 

Listen, you bring me a plant called Peony, or I'll kill your daughter right here. 

What? Why did you save her then? 

"I'm sorry, Fiona, you've been really good to me, but I have no choice. I'm sorry." Quick, go get the plant. You have 4 or I'll kill her right here. 

All right, all right, I'll go. The most important thing in my life is my daughter. 

Okay, quick. "Hahah I'm a dirty, deceitful person, but I have to do it or I won't be able to get my revenge." 

Here's the plant. 

Good. Wait here.

Free Fiona like we agreed. 

Okay, but stand here and don't move." I have to make him stand here to get away from him. When I free Fiona and run away, he won't be able to catch me".

Okay, okay, okay. 

All right, that's far enough. Go, Fiona. 

My daughter. Thank God you're okay. 

"Uh, I managed to escape. I'm a contradiction in terms. I freed her from that man and I'm even uglier." Sorry, Fiona. Sorry. Uh, I hate myself.

Well, that's the city limits, Draco. That's him 

How did it go for you, Ewan? 

Let's get going. I'll let you know as we fly. 

All right. So tell me how it went, Ewan? Why are you crying?

Draco, she was so nice to me, and I repaid her in the most horrible way. Draco, I don't deserve to live. 

I don't understand. Tell me everything that happened. 

All right. This is everything that happened. 

Okay, so You met one of those white-eyed people. 

Yeah, but he says he sees something demonic in my soul. 

Yeah, they have dragon-like eyes that look into souls, but they're not as accurate as a dragon's eyes.

But Draco . Fiona served me food and she was so nice and I treated her like shit. I took advantage of her. 

Don't worry, Ewan. Everyone in this world has done something bad in their life. Now you have to be a better person to make up for the bad things you've done. 

Well, thank you for that, Draco. 

All right, Ewan, we're here. Come on down. 

Thank you, Draco. 

Don't worry, buddy. 

"I'm really disappointed in myself. Thank God none of my friends have seen me do something like this." 

Okay, I'll go to Lana's shop and check out the plant and get my sword.

Hey, Lana, you're back. 

Ewan, hey, how'd it go? 

"I can't tell her what really happened". It was so easy. 

Thank God. 

So, Lana, can you check the plant and give me my sword?

Of course 

Congratulations. This plant is indeed Peony. 

Thank God. I had suspected for some time that it might be a fake. 

Don't worry, it's the real thing.

Thank you, Lana, for taking care of my sword. 

No problem, but why do you look so pale? What happened? 

It's nothing. Iam just tired . 

All right, take your sword. 

Then bye-bye. I'll go to bed and wake up in the morning to give the royal family this plant.

Okay, bye-bye. 

Finally a bed 

"What will Fiona think of me? Will she understand my situation? I don't think so. She probably hates me so much she regrets being nice to me." I have to sleep now so I can wake up early. Sorry, Fiona.
